This item was very easy to set up and fill. It starts filtering very slowly but after you break it in (4-5) fill ups it works very quickly. The water is very good after the Zen filters it. I would recommend this water filter system without hesitation. I am very satisfied especially since I have elimated the need to stop at the grocery store to fill my water jugs.

Well, I'm not sure why some other folks have had problems but I have found everything to work as intended and very well indeed. I followed all setup instructions and had no issues. I did not really need the assembly instructions, as it was clear enough to me from the picture as to how the unit should go together. My only adjustment after the first run was to tighten the faucet nut with a wrench instead of just my fingers. If you use a wrench, ensure you don't apply too much force and crack the plastic basin!

We have just moved from a house with a Nikken in-sink filter which cost over $800 and i can honestly say I like the taste of the water this unit makes better! The unit is not too quick but it is on par with other gravity fed units like Pur, Brita, etc. However the water it outputs is much better tasting!

No complaints but I would love to see a deluxe glass and metal version with heavier grade components and a higher flow metal faucet. An in-line under-sink unit like the Nikken would be great - I would buy one! The current unit build quality is adequate and is very good for the price. More importantly, the water it outputs is very good regardless of price. I would buy again.

A quick update on the filter after about two months use... I really like the taste of this water! It has a clean, dry mineral taste a bit like melted snow. We make our own carbonated water with it and it carbonates with smaller bubbles than water from our Nikken filter did. Just Excellent!

I've owned one of these units for several years and have always been very happy with it. Relatively easy to set up and maintain. This is a great price.

We bought this thinking it would be another run of the mill filter that would last a couple months then crap out on us like most we have bought. Boy howdy was I glad to be completely wrong! This has turned our nasty water (Norman, Oklahoma ranked worst offender of Chromium levels) into pure water so good our neighbors come and ask to borrow some! Thank you Zen Water for a great product that continues to impress.

I bought this Zen water filter system about 2 months ago. I wanted to give it sometimes before writing a review about it. The setup was fairly easy if properly following the provided instruction. It is best to completely read the instruction to get overall picture before get started. To achieve the best result, the filter system must be setup as instructed. This part took quite a bit of my time. Then, it took almost 8 hrs for all the water to get through the filter system. I discarded the first two cycles. The set up process is a bit of hassle, but at the end you have a clean and delicious mineral drinking water. Zen water system reduces the waste of plastic bottle, which helps to save us money as well as our environment. Overall, it is a great product at fairly low cost!!!

I can't give 5 stars because I have not had my water tested, but the taste is wonderful. The first few runs through tasted awful and I was very worried. After 2 or 3 times running water through, it's all good. Tastes better than the UV/filter system that I had before. The ceramic dome has changed color already and it's only a week, so I will probably have to clean it more often.

After reading many of the reviews here, I was worried that maybe this was not a smart purchase... WRONG! Just follow the directions and you will be VERY HAPPY. This filter turns my city water into "Spring Quality" water. No more sediment and chlorine after taste. The ceramic filter really removes a ton of sediment. I'll be purchasing a Zen Filter for my water cooler very soon! This sure beats lugging bottles!!!

We got this about a month+ ago and we like it so far. The taste of water is getting better and better (more bottley). I felt the pre assembly and assembly were a little work (you have to boil the mineral stones and let them dry, you have to scrub the ceramic filter thoroughly and the reservoir tap is a piece of work). But the money and the initial work were worth it!!
I always loved the taste of RO filtered water but always hated buying plastic bottled water for not being eco-friendly and money spent on them. This addresses both these issues. You should also know that you will need to replace the ceramic filter and filter cartridge after about 6 months or so I guess.
Bottom-line, I recommend this product!!

After following the cleaning directions, we easily assembled the filter and it works great. The filtered water is noticeably different, tastes much better than tap, and is comparable to bottled water - without the added expense and plastic bottles. Very good price. Very good product.

If you have well water this not the answer. Thought I would give it a try as opposed to installing a RO system (which is a pain). $$ down the drain as this
item did not make much of a difference in water quality or taste.
I guess the Berkey filters and the quality reverse osmosis systems are $200.00 + for a reason. (Your mileage may vary...)
